Good Grapes
Darin and Naomi Griffin learned the ins and outs of good wine when they lived in Germany, spending time at festivals in the country's Rheingau region. Since taking over at the 130-acre Old Stone Winery, they've locally sourced ingredients for their eclectic wine catalog, which includes chambourcin, sweet muscadine, and many more.
